Los Angeles Clippers guard Chauncey Billups suffered a torn left Achilles tendon in last night’s 107-102 Clippers’ win in Orlando. The injury, which occurred with 5:48 remaining in the fourth quarter, will sideline Billups for the remainder of the 2011-12 NBA season.

The Clippers dream season might have been dealt a major blow. With 5:48 left in the fourth quarter, Chauncey Billups injured his left Achilles tendon. But not just a tweak type of thing. HoopsWorld reports that Billups could potentially be finished for the season. Many of Billups teammates commented in the locker room that Billups was “done”, hinting that the Achilles was more than a strain and was in fact a full tear.

Chauncey Billups hit a winning 3-pointer with 1 second left, Mo Williams made his first seven shots and finished with 26 points off the bench in his return to the lineup and the Los Angeles Clippers stunned the defending NBA champion Dallas Mavericks 91-89 on Wednesday night.

The Los Angeles Clippers wasted little time displaying their new weapons, as Chauncey Billups scored 21 points, while Chris Paul hit three consecutive hoops to ice the game, and the Clippers opened up their season with a 105-86 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Sunday night.

Life has been kind to Chris Paul in his first few days living under the sunny southern California sky. It will get a whole lot better once he’s able to take the court with his teammates for the first time.
